Purchase local products whenever possible

However, purchasing tourist souvenirs made from animals (i.e. shells, horns, pelts, coral, etc.) is risky and aids in animal and environmental distinction and destruction. If you do purchase something, make sure you’ve checked that it’s legal and that you’ll be able to carry it through customs and back to your home country.
